Abstract:
:To access the effects of the surface modification and fabric structure of polyethylene (PE) non-woven fabric sheets on retaining the attachment efficiency of anammox biomass, three different non-woven sheets were prepared and inserted in an anammox reactor. The hydrophobic surface modification with 10% KMnO4 and gelatin did not improve the attachment efficiency of the anammox biomass on the surface of the PE non-woven fibers. Densely packed PE-755 having the highest specific surface area to volume ratio (SA/V) (755) retained 221.4 mg biomass per unit sheet, whereas PE-181 having the lowest SA/V (181) retained only 66.4 mg biomass per unit. Accordingly, the volumetric anammox activity of non-woven sheet PE-755 was the highest among the three PE non-woven sheets because of the strong positive relationship between the specific anammox activity and biomass amount (R = 0.835, P < .01). The specific surface area to volume ratio (cm2 cm-3) as well as the bulk density should be considered as important parameters for the selection of non-woven biocarriers for anammox biomass.
